Amelia Earhart-Pioneer in Aviation
Wednesday, July 277:00—8:00 PM3rd floor meeting hallTOHP Burnham 30 Martin St, Essex, MA, 01929
We are delighted to welcome back actress Sheryl Faye in the role of Amelia Earhart. Don't miss this living history performance ideal for ages 7 through adult. You won't be disappointed! Drop-ins are welcome, but if you plan to attend, we'd love to know! Please RSVP.
Amelia Earhart’s fearless, adventuresome spirit leads to hair-raising rides down her homemade roller coaster, and she is enthralled with the wonders of the new “flying machines” during a family vacation to the Iowa State Fair.
As she matures, she is fulfilled by her work as a nurse’s aide and begins to consider a career in medicine. This idea “flies out the window,” however, when she pays a pilot $1.00 to take her up for a short “hop” in his plane. From then on, the science of aviation becomes her passion as flying becomes her career.
She follows her dreams with an indomitable spirit, and her story will inspire everyone to pursue their own budding interests, whatever they may be, and will also reinforce the importance of family, respect for others and individuality.
